2012 Mylo Xyloto World Tour

Strictly FX is one of the world’s premiere laser and special effects companies and is no stranger to working alongside some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry. So when notorious rock group COLDPLAY went to decide who would incorporate a laser light show for them on their massive 2012 Mylo Xyloto world tour, Strictly FX was the clear choice.

The 2012 Mylo Xyloto has been amazing audiences around the world over the past few months, and Strictly FX has been journeying along for the ride. The team has brought six of their high powered Arctos Lasers with them, which were specifically programmed to dance alongside the colorful graffiti-clad production that COLDPLAY has in store for their fans.

The gear used on the road includes four 34-watt RGBY Arctos diode lasers, and two 32-watt RGBY Arctos diode lasers. The programming
for such a show is no easy task, and the team at Strictly FX decided to go with long time partner Pangolin Laser Systems for the job. Strictly FX programmed the show using seven Pangolin LD2000/BEYOND systems, including one LD2000 PRO system all ran via the Pangolin network. Strictly FX loves the vast multitude of effects that they are able to produce using Pangolin, and in addition, they have come to trust the reliability and durability of Pangolin being able to perform on such high profile events night after night.

Strictly FX’s unique programming style using Pangolin, combined with their versatile high wattage laser projectors from Arctos, have come
together to produce a show that is sure to amaze. Each laser is capable of such a vast variety of colors, from the pinks to the blues, that they truly capture the essence and feeling of the show. And these lasers’ high wattage allows for them not to get lost in the brightness of the lighting and the video screens, really making the lasers stand out from all of the other lighting being used. Thus, each lasers create a massive blanket of colored light that stretches across the entire arena and really captures the fan’s imaginations.
